Synopses & Reviews
First comes a fully illustrated, original short text--a biography about astronaut Sally Ride, a letter to a congresswoman, a scientific article about fossils, a story about life on a big ranch. Following the text is a comprehension card that quizzes the reader about action, characters, and content. And following that is a card with questions on Grammar, Phonics, Word Choice, and more.
